I am researching rats and their interaction with people in buildings,
specifically the archaeology of rats' nests and clues to cultural life in a
house. Someone mentioned seeing something on the History Channel about a
temple in India honoring rats. Does anyone know anything specific about
this place or others like it? Books where I can read and see such places? And
any stories about rats' nests or other rats-architecture connections would
be
very much appreciated.
